How to make a Candy Stripe Bracelet

Step 1: Chose 6 colors of your desire. Two strands of each.Step 2: Measure the length slightly longer than the distance between the distance from your shoulder to your fingertip.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 3: Next tie all the strings together. But organizing them by color.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 4: Pin the bracelet onto your jeans.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 5: Braid about a centimeter, then stop.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 6:Knot the far left thread (Strand 1) around the thread immediately to its right (Strand 2). Loop it over the front of Strand 2, then around the back, and, finally, up through the loop you’ve created. Pull the end to tighten Strand 1 into a knot. Repeat to make a second knot.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 7:As you knot Strand 1, hold Strand 2 taut; this way, you will tie Strand 1 around Strand 2, not with it.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 8: Check to see if the bracelet will fit.============================================================= Step 9: Just like in step 5 braid for about a centimeter.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 10: You can also add charms or beads to spice up your bracelet.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 11: Next, tie the bracelet.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Step 12: Cut the extra string off that is unnessasary.============================================================= Here is the final result. Hope you guys enjoy :)
